The timing for Fanny Crown email could not have been better: I don't usually have many weddings/holy communions/baptism partys...But this year I'm attending a super important event: my parent's silver wedding anniversary party. That's right :) And since I wasn't on the picture yet, by the time of their "original" wedding, I have to make it up and dress well to the occasion, on the "second" wedding.

The fact that Fanny Crown is an online store that sells party and wedding dresses (side note: it has some Oscar worthy dresses), with offices in Paris, London, Hong Kong, Brussels (and so on) couldn't be more perfect, right?

So I decided to choose a dress amongst the numerous wonderful dresses they have and create the whole look I'd wear around it.

The anniversary party will be in middle September, at sunset time, in our country house. The whole environment will be romantic and thought to the detail, but simultaneously familiar and relaxed. In order to create some harmony, the dress code is "white". (being the daughter of the "bride and groom" has some perks...I have access to all kinds of inside information... :D ).

So, let's get to my choices:

- I chose this white dress (like I had a choice when it comes to color xD) because I found it so feminine and beautiful. Besides, the shoulder and neckiline part is kind of sexy (without being too much) and the little flowers give it a more rustic vibe, making it perfect for the occasion :)

- As for the shoes...Considering the uneven floor and its gaps, they had to be flat;

- The rest of the acessories were thought in order to make the look more modern;

- For the hair, I wanted something very romantic;

- And finally, on the make-up, I'd go for a (light) smokey eye with shades of blue and a nude lipstick. Nails in the same color of the eyes :p

In conclusion: my goal was to create a balance: contry-ish, but modern; romantic, but kind of sexy. I think it's important to dress according the type of event (place, time of the year, time of the day) but most of all not to forget our style and wear something that reflects who we are.

Oh, honey! It's perfect! I love it! Can't wait to see the final look! But I can imagine you and you're going to look like a princess! I also love the whole idea of silver wedding! I'm all melted now :D
